Dear Joe,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share something important with you.
After much consideration and reflection, I have made the decision to withdraw all support for any candidate of either party.
The level of fighting and division in our political landscape has reached unbearable levels, and I can no longer endorse either party in good conscience.
One of the reasons behind this decision is the profound disillusionment I feel regarding the misuse of access to my personal life. Obama, whom I once supported, has crossed boundaries and abused this access in ways that have deeply affected me. I am not comfortable elaborating on the specifics, but suffice it to say that this manipulation has compromised my sense of safety and trust.
My legacy is not based and/or built upon Obama, that is the platform he used to get elected and maintain popularity.
My legacy is based on the work of Deborah Jamison Valentine, who knew both Trump and Biden.
As a result, I am severing my ties with both political parties.
This upcoming election season will mark my final one where I refrain from endorsing any party or candidate. It's a decision I've arrived at after much soul-searching and consideration of the values I hold dear.
I wanted you to hear this directly from me, as someone I value and respect. Our political choices are deeply personal, and while mine may differ from yours or others', I hope you can understand and respect my decision.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. I appreciate your friendship and understanding during this challenging time.
Warm regards,
